Great lawyer, even better man! After I had dug the biggest hole of my life at 18 years old this man took on my case and gave me hope for a better life. Because of Mr. Duncan I received the best outcome from the wreckage I had caused. Always helpful, always honest, always had my best interest in mind and was always upfront! Even with the hard stuff. I couldn’t have the life I do now without Mr. Duncan. Very grateful for his service! Five stars for the job he did, and five stars for the man he is! Thank you Mr. Duncan.

*PLEASE READ BEFORE HIRING*

I can't recommend Bill. In fact it's the complete opposite. If you are looking for a lawyer who will communicate and be honest with you, avoid Bill Duncan.

To cut to the chase, I got a speeding ticket near Yreka and decided to hire Bill, and he could not reduce or dismiss it. Now, I understand that it is not always guaranteed so this review is not about that. But he did make it seem like it was an easy win and that he should not have problems fighting it.

The problem is that Bill just refuses to communicate with you and will not respond to anything you say, even if you ask questions. During the four-five month period it took to take care of the ticket, he did not contact me ONCE. I reached out to him about three times with questions and he didn't respond to ANY of them. Please see attached pictures for proof.

The only time he reached out was when he went to court and failed. He told me he succeeded to fight it "30%. " Oh. I didn't realize the courts gave lawyers a grade to how much they succeeded.. NOT. And after that, I replied and asked him a question. Guess what. He didn't reply.

One reviewer stated that Bill "doesn't hold your hand" with the issue. I understand that lawyers will not be buddy buddy with you and talk to you everyday. But they work with clients and it is UNACCEPTABLE to not establish any sort of relationship and communication, especially when most clients are uneasy about what will happen to them after a ticket.

So terrible communication, bad result. I understand there aren't too many lawyers in the Yreka area, but I'm sure any other person would be better. If you are reading this because you need a lawyer, pass on and find someone else- it'll save you from trouble later.

William Duncan, you have won my heart. Great work in having my speeding traffic ticket completely dismissed without me stepping into this far distance court. I will not have any points in my DMV record and hence there will be no insurance rate increase. Needless to say, I did not have to wast money in travelling to and from to this far distance court and pay for hotel stay.

Thank you again.

I've known Bill as my attorney for 10+ yrs and I'm greatly pleased with his knowledge of the law, be it real estate, criminal, probate, Living Trust etc...
Bill's an excellent trial court attorney, must have been on debate team, very distinguished gentleman with many years of experience. My court case has been done pro bono for last 7 yrs. Thanks for all your many hours spent setting up for Trial, I'll give you a 10+.
We (WON) Go Bill

My husband and I, for the first time in our life, had need of an attorney. Our case was unusual. Mr Duncan listened carefully and was always kind and concerned about our best interest. He is completely professional and has a commanding knowledge of the law. He treated us with respect and dignity throughout the entire 2 year ordeal. He was supportive when we were discouraged and very fair with his fees. He continued to keep us updated on the progress as time went along. We feel grateful to have had this specific attorney represent us and would never hesitate to recommend to anyone in need. At this point we feel he was not only our attorney, but has also become a friend. Thank you Mr Duncan for teaching us so much and believing in us.

I found out I could not renew my license because I had an outstanding ticket that we got for registration not being current. I was in the wrong. I thought my wife had taken care of it. 2 years after we were pulled over for this on the way home from a trip to Portland, my wife had no recollection of anything whatsoever. I called the court, and the rude clerk (aren't they always?) said I have 2 options. Pay, or appear. I wasn't about to drive up to the court several hundred miles away, and paying that enormous fine wasn't an option either. I chose the 3rd option--find an attorney on yelp! There were only a couple in the area. I chose William Duncan because he was willing to listen to me for a few minutes without charging me in 15 minute increments, unlike the other attorney. Mr. Duncan assured me that 95% of cases like mine are at least reduced to a minimal fine of like $25, or dismissed altogether, in his experience. It still felt like a gamble, but I decided to take him on his word. His fee was very reasonable for having to prepare for this and make 2 trips to court. I cooperated with everything he asked. Note that we had actually taken care of the registration right away after returning home, so I think that helped. It took a while, and my license expired before the trial, but it turns out William Duncan's word was accurate! My case was dismissed. He saved me over $600. Thank you, William Duncan!

Bill successfully defended a traffic ticket that I received, which I felt to be unjustified. He did a great job - the ticket was dismissed. Communication with him was easy, with prompt and professional replies and updates. Thank you Bill.
